just got fitted and ordered...here's my new bag

[mattdubya]

as anyone posting or reading knows...once you get the itch it's tough to get rid of it.  I broke 90 for the first time this year and as a reward for being such an amazing golfer i decided to get new clubs.

 

i went for a driver about 2-3 months ago and got fitted for the rest, sans putter, over the weekend.  they're still not here yet but i can't contain myself.

 

callaway rogue 9* - project x hzrdus green

callaway rogue 3w 15* - stock evenflo blue

callaway rogue x 3h 18* - stock evenflo black

mizuno jpx 919 hot metal 4-GW - nippon 950

mizuno s18 in 55 and 60*

i tried to hit the forged but honestly what i could kindly call a cut or fade turned into a slice rather easily.  they're the best looking clubs that i tried to hit but i'm just not there.  i also hit some pxg because as my fitter said...if you're in the showroom you should drive the ferrari.  i mean...they're too expensive but WOW.

i got the golf pride mcc aligns, which i'm a little bit worried about with the wedges.  does it feel weird opening it way up if i have to? that's the one thing i didn't do in the fitting and am kicking myself for it.  i also didn't try the vokey's when i should've but the s18 felt really nice anyway.

 

i didn't get fitted for a putter as i figured what i really need there is a lesson and to really drill down on understanding what i'm doing before i buy something.  i run hot and cold and i think it's because my actual mechanics and setup are all over the damn place with the putter.

Welcome, Matt, and exciting stuff here! Those Mizunos are some great looking clubs.

On the grips: I have the alignment grips on my irons, and at least for my part, they are so subtle that it took me a few rounds of owning them before I even noticed that they were there. Unless you have the hands of a surgeon, I can't imagine that they'll be an impediment to short game shots.

thanks patrick.  i figured as much when i was giving them a go on the irons.  seems like more of a gentle reminder than a smack to the head.

I love the GP alignment on my driver - subtle but enough to know its there.

What an awesome reward for breaking 90. With that set up, breaking 80 has to be in your future.
